An end cap assembly 100, a battery cell, an energy storage device, and a powered device according to an embodiment of the present application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1-3, an end cap assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present application includes: a cover plate 11 and a terminal assembly 12. The cover plate 11 is provided with a liquid injection hole 110, the terminal assembly 12 is welded on the cover plate 11, and the terminal assembly 12 covers the liquid injection hole 110 to form a seal with the liquid injection hole 110.
The terminal assembly 12 forms an electrode on the cap plate 11, and the cap plate 11 can form an electrical connection between the terminal assembly 12 and the cell tab inside the battery cell. And after the cap plate 11 is assembled to the battery cell, an electrolyte is injected into the battery cell through the electrolyte injection hole 110.
The end cap assembly 100 of the present application eliminates the cost of sealing the pour hole 110 with additional sealing nails by sealing the pour hole 110 with the terminal assembly 12. Meanwhile, the assembly of the terminal assembly 12 on the cap plate 11 and the sealing of the liquid injection hole 110 are completed in one step, thereby simplifying the assembly of the battery cell and improving the assembly rate of the battery cell.
In the present application, the assembly sequence of the end cap assembly 100 is as follows: first, the cap plate 11 is assembled to the battery cell, and then the battery cell is filled with a liquid through the liquid filling hole 110 of the cap plate 11, and after the filling is completed, the terminal assembly 12 is covered with the liquid filling hole 110 and sealed.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, the cover plate 11 has an outer side surface S1 and an inner side surface S2 opposite to each other in a thickness direction, the outer side surface S1 is provided with a first sink 111, and the filling hole 110 is located at the bottom of the first sink 111. The terminal assembly 12 includes a first post segment 121, the first post segment 121 being at least partially disposed within the first sink 111.
Thus, when the first column section 121 is located in the first sink 111, the first column section 121 can cover the liquid injection hole 110 located at the bottom of the first sink 111, so as to seal the liquid injection hole 110. The first post segment 121 and the first countersink 111 are matched to position the welding position of the terminal assembly 12 on the liquid injection hole 110, which is beneficial to improving the covering and sealing effect of the terminal assembly 12 on the liquid injection hole 110.
In the present application, the shapes of the first column section 121 and the first sink 111 are not limited. For example, the first column section 121 may be provided as a square column, and the first sink 111 is correspondingly provided as a square groove.
Further, a ring stand 120 is provided on the outer periphery of the first column section 121, the ring stand 120 is in contact with the peripheral surface of the first sink 111, and the ring stand 120 is welded to the inner wall of the first sink 111. With this structure, the sliding of the terminal assembly 12 along the outer side surface S1 of the cap plate 11 can be prevented or reduced, and the positioning effect of the first sink 111 on the welding position of the terminal assembly 12 can be improved. The annular platform 120 is welded to the inner wall of the first countersink 111, so that the welding stress is released along the terminal assembly 12 toward the outer side surface S1 of the cover plate 11 while the welding area is ensured to be large, and the welding effect of the terminal assembly 12 on the cover plate 11 is ensured.
Further, as shown in fig. 4, the terminal assembly 12 includes a second post segment 122, the second post segment 122 being positioned within the pour spout 110. With such a structure, the second column section 122 can also seal the liquid injection hole 110 while the first column section 121 and the first sink 111 are sealed in cooperation, so that the sealing effect on the liquid injection hole 110 is improved by the two-position sealing structure.
Specifically, the end cap assembly 100 further includes: the sealing ring 13, sealing ring 13 cover is on second column section 122, interference fit between sealing ring 13 and the notes liquid hole 110. Thereby, the sealing ring 13 can reduce the gap between the second column section 122 and the inner wall of the liquid injection hole 110, so as to improve the sealing effect of the second column section 122 on the liquid injection hole 110 and improve the sealing effect of the whole terminal assembly 12 on the liquid injection hole 110.
In the present application, the manner of fixing the gasket 13 to the second column section 122 is not limited. For example, the sealing ring 13 may be fixed to the second column section 122 by gluing; for another example, the sealing ring 13 may be fixed by providing an annular receiving groove in the second column section 122, in which the sealing ring is provided.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 6 and 7, the bottom surface of the first sink 111 is further provided with a second sink 112, and the filling hole 110 is located on the bottom surface of the second sink 112.
It will be appreciated that after the injection through the injection hole 110, the electrolyte is easily remained in the first precipitation tank 111, and the residual electrolyte may reduce the welding effect of the first column section 121 in the first precipitation tank 111, resulting in a reduced sealing effect between the first column section 121 and the first precipitation tank 111.
Thus, after the second precipitation tank 112 is provided, a larger proportion of the electrolyte remains in the second precipitation tank 112 that is closer to the pouring hole 110 than in the first precipitation tank 111, and the second precipitation tank 112 can accommodate the remaining electrolyte, and the electrolyte in the first precipitation tank 111 can flow into the second precipitation tank 112, thereby further reducing the remaining amount of the electrolyte in the first precipitation tank 111. Thereby reducing or avoiding the electrolyte from affecting the welding effect of the first leg 121 within the first sink 111.
Further, as shown in fig. 7, the terminal assembly 12 further includes a third post segment 123, the third post segment 123 being located between the first post segment 121 and the second post segment 122, the third post segment 123 being located within the second sink 112. With this structure, the third pillar section 123 is fitted to the second recess 112, further improving the positioning effect of the welding position of the terminal assembly 12.
In the present application, the shape of the third column section 123 and the second sink 112 is not limited. For example, the third column segment 123 may be configured as a square column, and the second sink 112 may be correspondingly configured as a square groove.
Specifically, the diameter of the second sink 112 gradually decreases in the direction toward the pour hole 110, and the peripheral surface of the third column segment 123 is in contact with the peripheral surface of the second sink 112. Therefore, the gap between the third column section 123 and the inner wall of the second sinking groove 112 is smaller, and the first column section 121 and the first sinking groove 111 are matched and sealed, and simultaneously, the third column section 123 and the second sinking groove 112 are sealed, so that the sealing effect on the liquid injection hole 110 is improved through the two sealing structures.
While in the particular example shown in fig. 7, the terminal assembly 12 further includes a second post segment 122, and the second post segment 122 is positioned within the pour hole 110. At this time, the first column section 121 and the first sink 111 are sealed in a matching manner, the third column section 123 also forms a seal with the second sink 112, and the second column section 122 also forms a seal with the pouring orifice 110. And further, three sealing structures are formed, and the sealing effect on the liquid injection hole 110 is further improved.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 1-10, the cover plate 11 is provided with a switch tab 14 on a side facing away from the terminal assembly 12, the switch tab 14 being electrically connected to the terminal assembly 12.
It can be understood that the adapter piece 14 can contact with the battery cell tab inside the battery cell to form a conductive circuit, and the cover plate 11 can serve as an intermediate conductor, so as to sequentially form a conductive circuit along the battery cell tab, the adapter piece 14, and the cover plate 11 to the terminal assembly 12, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the battery cell tab and the terminal assembly 12.
Therefore, the terminal assembly 12 is connected with the battery cell tab through the switching piece 14, so that the connection area between the switching piece 14 and the battery cell tab is larger, the conduction stability of current is ensured, and the current output of the battery cell is more stable.
In this embodiment, the assembly sequence of the end cap assembly 100 is as follows: first, the switching piece 14 is attached to the inner side S2 of the cap plate 11, then the cap plate 11 is assembled to the battery cell, and then the battery cell is filled with a liquid through the liquid filling hole 110 in the cap plate 11, and after the filling is completed, the terminal assembly 12 is covered with the liquid filling hole 110 and welded and sealed.
Further, a portion of the switching piece 14 is disposed corresponding to the terminal assembly 12, and a perforation 141 facing the liquid injection hole 110 is disposed on the switching piece 14.
It will be appreciated that the adapter plate 14 is already attached to the cover plate 11 at the time of filling through the filling port 110, as can be seen with reference to the above-described end cap assembly sequence. And a portion of the switch piece 14 is disposed in correspondence with the terminal assembly 12, which causes the switch piece 14 to cover and block the pour hole 110.
Therefore, the through hole 141 opposite to the liquid injection hole 110 is disposed on the adapting piece 14, that is, the through hole 141 is coaxially disposed with the center of the liquid injection hole 110, so that the liquid injection hole 110 is communicated with the inside of the battery cell through the through hole 141, and the electrolyte can flow through the adapting piece 14 through the through hole 141, thereby reducing or avoiding the blockage of the adapting piece 14 to the liquid injection hole 110, and further ensuring the smoothness of liquid injection through the liquid injection hole 110.
In the present application, the shape of the hole 141 and the pouring hole 110 is not limited. For example, the perforations 141 and the pour spout 110 may each be configured as circles. For another example, the perforations 141 may be square and the injection holes 110 may be circular. In addition, the perforations 141 on the transfer sheet 14 may be provided in different sizes, and the perforations 141 may be provided larger than the pour hole 110, equal to the pour hole 110, or smaller than the pour hole 110.
Further, the adaptor piece 14 is provided with a circular area welded with the cover plate 11, and the projection of the liquid injection hole 110 on the adaptor piece 14 along the thickness direction of the cover plate 11 is located in the circular area. Thereby, the welding area L between the switching piece 14 and the cover plate 11 surrounds the opening of the pouring hole 110, and the gap between the switching piece 14 and the cover plate 11 can be reduced while fixing the switching piece 14 to the cover plate 11, reducing or avoiding the flow of electrolyte between the switching piece 14 and the cover plate 11.
Referring now to fig. 4-10, a portion of a specific embodiment of an end cap assembly 100 according to the present application is described. In the end cap assembly 100 of the first embodiment shown in fig. 4 and 5, the first sink 111 is provided on the outer side surface S1 of the cover plate 11, and the liquid injection hole 110 is located at the bottom surface of the first sink 111. Meanwhile, the terminal assembly 12 includes a first post segment 121, a ring table 120 is disposed on the first post segment 121, and a second post segment 122 is disposed at the bottom of the first post segment 121. In such a structure, the second column section 122 can also seal the liquid injection hole 110 while the ring 120 and the first sink 111 are welded and sealed, so that the sealing effect on the liquid injection hole 110 is improved by the two-position sealing structure.
In this embodiment, the groove 114 is disposed on the outer side surface S1 of the cover plate 11 around the first sink 111, and the groove 114 cooperates with the first column section 121 to accommodate the molten liquid formed in the welding process of the first column section 121, thereby releasing the welding stress and improving the reliability of the welding connection of the first column section 121 in the first sink 111.
Meanwhile, the boss 113 is arranged on the inner side surface S2 of the cover plate 11 around the liquid injection hole 110, the length of the liquid injection hole 110 in the axial direction can be increased by the boss 113, meanwhile, the thickness of the cover plate 11 at the first sinking groove 111 and the second sinking groove 112 is increased, the structural strength of the cover plate 11 at the first sinking groove 111, the second sinking groove 112 and the liquid injection hole 110 is further improved, and the structural reliability of the cover plate 11 is guaranteed.
In addition, the adapter piece 14 is welded to the boss 113, and the through hole 141 is the same as the filling hole 110 in size, and at this time, a welding area L1 between the adapter piece 14 and the boss 113 is provided around the through hole 141.
In the end cap assembly 100 of the second embodiment shown in fig. 6, the second column section 122 is not provided at the bottom of the first column section 121 on the basis of the first embodiment described above.
In the end cap assembly 100 of the third embodiment shown in fig. 7, the terminal assembly 12 further includes a third post segment 123 in addition to the end cap assembly 100 of the first embodiment described above. The third column section 123 is disposed in the second sink 112, the second column section 122 is disposed in the liquid injection hole 110, and the second column section 122 is sleeved with the sealing ring 13 and is in interference fit with the liquid injection hole 110.
With this structure, the first column section 121 and the annular land 120 are welded and sealed, and the third column section 123 is also sealed with the second sink 112, and the second column section 122 is also sealed with respect to the pouring orifice 110. And further, three sealing structures are formed, and the sealing effect on the liquid injection hole 110 is further improved.
Furthermore, on the inner side surface S2, the end surface of the second column section 122 is flush with the opening of the pouring orifice 110.
In the end cap assembly 100 of the fourth embodiment shown in fig. 8, the second post segment 122 extends out of the pour hole 110 and is partially within the perforation 141, based on the end cap assembly 100 of the third embodiment described above. With such a structure, the second column section 122 can also cooperate with the perforation 141 to form a seal, further improving the sealing effect on the liquid injection hole 110.
In the cap assembly 100 of the fifth embodiment shown in fig. 9 and 10, the perforations 141 are provided coaxially with the center of the pour hole 110 on the basis of the cap assembly 100 of the third embodiment described above, but the perforations 141 are provided in an area smaller than the area of the pour hole 110.
With this structure, the end face of the second column section 122 located on the inner side face S2 can be partially in contact with the switching piece 14.
